Sometimes feedapi node articles do not expire unless the feed is refreshed manually. I only became aware of this when I did some manual refreshes to capture some breaking news items.

There is a simple workaround which also confirms that the problem exists. I just created an action view.

NOTE: I marked this as "minor." I would hate to see resources spent on a fix for a problem is so easily managed when there are probably more pressing issues.

The problem was that the node_delete contains a permission checking. Cron runs in anon mode, the result is the bug.
The issue was fixed in the 6.x branch.
Now i backported it to the 5.x branch also.
